I would like to swap my old shocks out for a set of Harley Sportster lowering shocks. They are 11.75" so it should drop it about 2" I have been told I would have to change the bushings on the HD shocks to fit my Kawasaki.
Does anyone know what size bushing? Or where I can buy the bushing I will need for this swap?

Thanks for the help,

You can get multi-make universal kits from Progressive, like the kind that come with their lowering shocks.

If you don't have the HDs yet, or maybe have another use for them, you can get your stock shocks cut, polished, and return shipped for well under a C-note from Sons of Thunder . Pete is the man in that field.

Which shocks are the best fit? Progressive 440 or 412?

My bike is a Police bike it has very ugly shocks. I'm looking for something thats more to look at and modern.
